Sumario:This article consists in analyzing the use of the O Nordeste - Catholic newspaper of Ceará - as a tool for spreading the guidelines of the Catholic hierarchy for the Brazilian countryside. The changes that this newspaper went through between 1961 and 1963, in relation to the treatment of the agrarian issue, are illustrative of the effort expended by the Catholic hierarchy in the struggle for the political organization of the rural worker. Adopting as theoretical-methodological references the ideas developed by Jean-Noël Jeanneney, Norman Fairclough, Regina de Luca, Cruz and Peixoto, we attempt to make a two-dimensional analysis of this journal’s speech, discussing both its textual structure - vocabulary and argumentative strategies - and the political-economic context in which it was placed. For this purpose, we divide the article into three parts: we will present the performance forms of the Catholic Church in the Brazilian countryside; we will discuss the way by which O Nordeste reported the rural problems between 1961 and 1963; we will discuss how the rural workers were characterized by this newspaper.
